Actor Sync

Automatically synchronise actor information to your third party systems e.g. Mixpanel, Sendgrid, Segment etc. I currently use this in production on Frain.

Getting Started

config/initializers/actor_sync.rb

ActorSync.configure do |config|
   config.sync = true
   config.mixpanel = { project_token: '' }
   config.mailchimp = { api_key: '' }
end

app/models/user.rb

class User < ApplicationRecord
   include ActorSync

   actor_sync :mixpanel
   actor_sync :mailchimp, audience: monthly_mailing_lists

   def data_to_export_to_mixpanel
      {
         '$first_name': profile.first_name,
         '$last_name': profile.last_name,
         '$email': email
      }
   end
end

app/models/company.rb

class Company < ApplicationRecord
   include ActorSync

   actor_sync :mixpanel, group: true

   def data_to_export_to_mixpanel
      {
         '$name': name,
         'products': products_count
      }
   end
end

TODO

• Write more tests.
• Add Instrumentation
• Add support for other activejob backends - Resque etc.
• Add support for NoSQL Databases
• Add support for Sinatra (Non-Rails environment)
• More documentation
• Add rake tasks to manually sync data
• Add support for mixpanel lookup tables
